Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Taunton MA
703 AM EST Sun Jan 8 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
An arctic cold front may bring localized heavy snow squalls this
afternoon. High pressure builds across region tonight bringing
very cold weather into Monday. The high then moves offshore,
allowing moderating temperatures Tuesday and Wednesday. However
this airmass change will be accompanied by snow changing to rain
late Tue into Tue night. Mild weather arrives Wednesday thru
Friday however it will be unsettled with rain showers from time to
time.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...

7 AM Update...

Ocean effect snow showers now confined to just the outer Cape and
will continue to move east and offshore within the next hour or
two as winds continue to back from NNW to NW. Otherwise a cold
airmass combining with a deep fresh snowcover resulting in frigid
temperatures at 7 am. Most locations in the single digits to
lower teens. Previous forecast captures these details nicely so no
major changes with this update. Earlier discussion below.

====================================================================

*** Very cold with localized heavy snow squalls possible this
 afternoon ***

Persistent ocean effect bands affecting Cape Cod early this
morning. These bands are being generated by the instability over
the ocean with delta T exceeding 20C and steep 0-1km lapse rates.
Hi-res guidance suggests these snow bands will weaken through 12z
as low level flow backs to NW and low level drier air moves in,
but may see a few snow showers linger over the outer cape into the
mid morning. Any additional accumulation should be less than an
inch.

The main feature for today is a potent mid level shortwave and
attending arctic front which moves into the region this afternoon.
The morning will start out with sunshine but clouds will quickly
overspread the region as the column moistens ahead of the
shortwave. This shortwave is quite robust with 500 mb temps
decreasing to -40C. Good large scale lift combined with steep
1000-700 mb lapse rates 8-9C/km, abundant low level moisture and
decent low level convergence suggests scattered snow showers will
develop with the risk of isold heavy snow squalls, especially in
the interior. While the areal coverage of any heavier snow
squalls may be limited some of the hi-res guidance indicating the
potential for a quick inch or 2 which would likely be accompanied
by brief whiteouts. Will issue an SPS to address this concern. It
will be a cold day with highs only upper teens to lower 20s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/...
Tonight...
There may be a few lingering snow showers in the evening as the
shortwave exits the region, otherwise expect clearing skies with
diminishing wind as a ridge of high pres builds into the region.
Given the fresh snow cover, excellent radiational cooling will
lead to a very cold night with lows in the single numbers and
possibly below zero in portions of central and western MA.

Monday...
High pres shifts south of New Eng with return SW flow developing.
Another mid level shortwave approaches and combined with
developing warm advection will lead to increasing clouds during
the afternoon. However, the low levels remain rather dry so not
expecting any precip other than perhaps a few late afternoon
flurries in western MA. Given the cold start, it will be another
cold day as increasing cloud cover will limit heating in the
afternoon. Highs will range from the upper teens to mid 20s, a bit
milder outer Cape/islands.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/...

Highlights...

* Pattern change this period with a warming trend and temperatures
  near 50 Wednesday thru Friday!

* This pattern change will be accompanied by a storm track shifting
  west of New England, yielding several rounds of warm sector
  showers

Monday night...

High pres just offshore moves farther seaward resulting in return
flow into New England. This weak low level WAA will result in temps
not as cold as previous nights. However still chilly given light
winds, mostly clear skies and remaining snowcover. This will yield
lows in the teens for much of the region.

Tuesday/Tuesday night...

Next short wave trough and attending surface low tracks west of New
England across the Great Lakes and into Ontario. WAA ahead of this
feature will result in precip overspreading our region late Tue into
Tue night. Column may be cold enough initially to support snow
however strong low level warming will support a change from snow to
rain rather quickly. Temps will rise Tue night as warm sector
overspreads the region. In addition, ahead of the mid level trough
strong moisture advection with PWATs rising to about 1.0 inches /+1
STD/ combined with modest synoptic scale lift will result in some
robust showers with appreciable rainfall Tue night.

Wednesday thru Friday...

For Wed frontal boundary moving across the region probably in the
morning. Good synoptic scale lift and frontal scale forcing combined
with PWATs up to 1.0 inch will combine to support some robust
showers with appreciable rainfall. Much of the guidance indicates a
very progressive system with a drying trend during the afternoon.
Warm sector Tue night will result to a warm start to the day Wed. In
addition post frontal airmass Wed is of Pacific origin. Thus a mild
day in store. A model blend offers highs Wed of 45 to 50. 12z Euro
ensembles offer modest probabilities of highs 50+.

Both ensembles and deterministic model guidance have an anomalous
southeast/subtropical ridge building to near 590 dam heights off the
coast of the GA/SC Thu and Fri! These anomalous heights are about +2
standard deviations above climo. This will shift the storm track
west of New England and warm sector airmass overspreading our region.
Thus periods of showers but also mild with highs 45-50 Thu and
possibly into the 50s Fri.

Next Weekend...

Both ensembles and deterministic guidance suggest a cooling trend
despite southeast/subtropical ridge remaining strong.
Appears northern stream amplifies and begins to lower heights from
the Great Lakes into the northeast. This would support shallow cold
air bleeding southward into New England as 1040+ mb surface high
builds into New England. However at this time range too difficult to
predict where surface boundary will settle. Thus high uncertainty
regarding temps this period.

Forecaster Confidence Levels...

Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.

showers and localized snow squalls may result in brief IFR
conditions, especially interior.

early, otherwise VFR.

Monday...High confidence. VFR, with gradually lowering cigs.

KBOS TAF...High confidence

VFR. Possible MVFR in risk of showers and patchy fog.

.MARINE...
Forecaster Confidence Levels.

Low - less than 30 percent.
Moderate - 30 to 60 percent.
High - greater than 60 percent.

Short Term /through Monday/...

Today...High confidence. NW winds will gradually diminish through
the morning then increase across the RI coastal waters late

SCA for a time but rough seas will continue. SCA headlines will
continue. Areas of light freezing spray expected.

Tonight...High confidence. Another pulse of gusty NW winds to 25
kts expected following the shortwave passage. SCA conditions
continue. Light freezing spray over the open waters.

Monday...High confidence. Diminishing wind becoming SW in the
afternoon as high pres shifts south of the waters. Seas subsiding
below 5 ft.

Outlook /Monday Night through Thursday/...

Monday night thru Tue night...

increasing SSW winds with speeds of 20-30 kt by Tue night. Vsby
limited in snow quickly changing to rain late Tue.

Wednesday...

Front moves thru the area with winds shifting from south to west to
southwest. Improving vsby as drying trend develops during the
afternoon.

Thursday...

Low pressure tracks west of New England with SSW winds across the
area. Max speeds should be 20-30 kt along with limited vsby in
scattered showers.

...Scattered snow showers and localized heavy snow squalls are
possible later this afternoon...

Scattered snow showers are expected to develop mid to late this
afternoon as an arctic front moves into the region. Not all areas
will see snow showers but there is the potential for localized
brief heavy snow squalls which could drop a quick inch or 2 along
with near whiteout conditions producing hazardous travel.

Motorists should be alert for locally heavy snow squalls this
afternoon and rapidly changing weather and road conditions.
